KILLED BY A BASE BALL.
An Unfortunate Accident On the West
side Last Evening

An Unfortunate Accident On the West
side Last Evening.
A sad accident occurred on the West Side
last evening which viii cast gloom over at
least one household. About $50 o'clock
Fred Perkins and another coy were play
ing ball on Fifth-st., the former having
the bat in his hand. Stanley Pietrowicz
lives near where the boys were playing and
his little son Sylvester. i've years and five
months old, walked out into the street to
see The fun. He was standing about one
hundred feet behind the pitcher when he
threw the ball. Perkins struck liner"
and IL passed above the pitchers head, just
too high for him to catch. IL went like q
bullet and when it reached little Syl-
yester, who was in a direct line
with the other two. 1t struck him
In the stomach The little fellow imme-
diateIy dropped to the around limp as a
rag, aud the blood flowed from his mouth
and nose. The boy who thre Y the ball and
was nearest to him ran and picked him up.
carrying him to the sidewalk Young
Perkins then came up and carried the in
animate form into the home of its parents
at 55 Fifth-st. telling Mrs. Pietrowicz to
wash the blood from his mouth and he
would go for doctor. He started imme-
dirtely, but was unable to procure the ser
vices OF physician Tor some Time, as
several Of those be called upon were not IN
their ofiice AT last he found Dr.. Albright
and fastened back TO the house only to find
that the little boy vas dead. The mother was
overcome with grief. and the father thiak-
ing tha, the wound which took his little
boy from him had been inflicted on purpose
sent for the police. On the way over the
patrol wagon picked up Coroner Braddish,
and when they arrived at the house, Per-
sins told, in a truthful manner. Just how
the affair took place. and it vas decided that
no arrest could be made. The Coroner will
investigate further today. and il he deems is
necessary will empanel a jury 10 decide
whether the boy came 20 bis death by an
accident or otherwise. Perkins. whois six
teen years old, and resides with his parents
on the West Side, Is terribly grieved over
the affair, showing almost as much emotion
as the parents Of the dead hoy.
